Description



Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years. My main interest has been PROGRESSIVE especially the VERTIGO SWIRL/SPIRAL LABEL, reputed to be the most collectable label in the world?

I have finally finished my SWIRL collection of over 160 albums of which most are UK pressings, and now I am going to SELL them ( I must be mad ). I have been quite fussy about the QUALITY, CONDITION and they must be the VERY FIRST PRESSINGS. The latter has been the hardest to decipher and has had me buying and selling many copies of the same album to achieve this,and I almost have with these collectable gems.

I am now selling another..YES another set of UK swirl VERTIGO albums. PLEASE read the descriptions carefully as some of the albums are NOT very first pressings and some will be VERY FIRST white label promo's. But ALL are GENUINE UK SWIRL PRESSINGS. 

I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWESOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.

SO HERE WE GO.......

For sale here is --BLACK SABBATH--THE BEST OF-- ORIGINAL JAPAN ONLY  PRESSING.  stereo FD-94


SLEEVE.....BOOK TYPE and UN-LAMINATED.  The colours are very strong and vibrant. The top edges are MINT with NO WEAR or NO SPLITS. The bottom edges are also graded MINT. The front is in great condition  with  NO UNWANTED WRITING, NO STICKER TEARS, NO STICKERS, NO RING WEAR and NO CREASES, MINT. The rear  is in similar condition with NO RING WEAR, MINT.  The opening edges are in lovely MINT condition. There is NO  spine wear and the information is clear and un damaged, there is the most minute wear to the very tips of the corners. The inner colour poster is still attached and has never been put on a wall and is in N/MINT condition. The inner boards have some age spots, other than that are as new. All in all this is a wonderful condition  sleeve.N/MINT.




LABELS.....There is NO unwanted writing, stickers, residue or tears. There are only 1 or 2 very light spindle mark on either side, this album has obviously always been handled with great care N/MINT, N/MINT


VINYL..... Both sides of this fantastic album still have their JUST PRESSED deep black shine. When you hold this album in the very brightest of lights you can see VERY light surface hair lines and only 1 amall scuff which not affect the sound in any way but NO SCRATCHES . I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of sound quality at all, wonderful sound stage and stereo separation. There are dust crackles that can only be heard in the quiet parts of the music or between tracks, but a professional clean should sort out most of that. These HEAVY VINYL original pressings are second to none. This really is a great copy that any collector would be delighted to add to their collection, a real KEEPER .N/MINT, N/MINT.
